A Question Affect ing Notaries Public and Ex-Ofllcio'Justices of the Peace in Gtur- The decision recently rendered by our Supreme Court in the case of Tarply vs. Corpul is one of very gen eral interest. It is here held that the court of a notary public and ex-officio justice of the peace held on the fourth Tuesday of the month was not a legal court, because the justice’s court for that district had been already held for that month, on the second Tuess day, at the regular lime and place by the elected justice of the peace for t at district. The court aaye: - > “Be- ture the constitution of 1868, but odc justice court could be lu Id in a dis trict, and at but one place. That con stitution gave justices of the peace the right to sit at any time they pleased for the trial of cases.’’ Code 5104. * The Constitution of 1877 declares that they shall sit monthly, at fixed time and places. “Notaries public, not to exceed one for each district, may be appointed, and shall be ex- officio justices of the peace.”—Sup. to Code, 632—0. 4. It is not provided in the Constitu tion that notaries public shall sit at all as n court, but an act was passed at the session of 1S79 enabling them to hold court monthly, and at fixed time and places. Under the Consti tution of 1877 there can he hut two magistrates authorized to act as jus tices of the peace in one district—the one a justice of the peace eo nomine, the other a justice ol the peaee'rfrtufe officii— by virtue < f office ns a notary. So under the old system there were two justices of the peuee in each dis trict, and they sited eases separately and kept Separate dockets, hut the court was held at one time and place, lotthi ■ '“'Hi sat at that time anil place 1 It seems to (have hero the intention • if the trainers of the Constitution if had pi aTth. had nigh he remain* d i previously written : “Wilt i.i g« to tin- Indies, Au.l'i.io- oht Si-iitiii’-i* Will vgn the ltuiii-s. i-otlaiid. tin- oid order of things one justice court tit fir as time and place WAAT THEY SAY.

Drinking (Habits of Some of the Women of New York. “ 1 I would not go so far as to say that New York ladies drink to excess, sup posing that public drihking is permis sible in a lady at all. But 1 do say and see that ladies bare tire drinking a greit deal of both wine and spirits. Young ladies—not fast girls—when out flhnniMn<r <*n irtto Rin-nt’*. or Pin- out shopping go into Bigot’s, or Pin cell’s, or Debnotiico’s and order a “hot Scotch” with as little hesitation as a Grand Rapids ladywould order a pound of lea. I have noticed this Lzbil for several years, and written about it in New York and Boston pa pers. I ‘have read what others have said concerning the matter, and I be- l'»f lieve observing..men generally will agree tliil the custom is growing. Yet every time the subject is taised in the papers there is a great hue and cry, and the thing is denied Very persistently. Notwithstanding' 1 the rows a public mention of the evil has already caused, I affirm, of my own knowledge, it is true. I don’t know that I have often seen iadies intoxi cated here, save at Liederkranz or Arion balls, but I have seen hundreds of them drink freely.

The Bible in two volumes given to alary by Burns is still preserved in Iter family, ami the following passages of Scripture wa re written by iiim on their fly-leaves—on one, “ Thou shall not swear by my name falsely I am the Lord’’—(Leviticus, chapter xix., | verse 12) ; on the other, “Thou shall not forswear thy-elf, hut pertorm unto the Lord thy—(or, according to some, “all thy”)—vows”—(St. Matthew, chapter v., verse 33) If the latter text had been correctly quoted as w ritten, then Burns, either from hav ing written only from memory or in tentionally, has altered it, the true reading being: 1S77 to restore anti in have hut each distliu, stl are concerned.’’ This decision is a surprise toll e pro tension and the public. It has always been considered that the ex-officio justice and elected justice were on- tin Iv independent of each other. The practice has been in vogue ever since the constitution of 1868, anti through out our entire State. The conelu-ion ol our Supreme Court seems to he here, in good society, too, whit are drunkards, there can he no deny ing.

A corre-pondent ot the Boston Journal writes from, the i-lutid of Java an account of the manner in which the people there are enter tained: All the while the Imflalo re mained with poised hoftis and glaring eyes fixed on its adversary. Soon the tiger gathered itself for a spring, and made a single tremendous bound, which the spectators felt sure would settle the contest. Not so, however, for the tiger had failed in his attempt j to catch the buffalo by the back ot the neck, ami only made a wound with its claws, when it was thrown ofl’ Failing in its attack it seemed to lose courage and sidled off, cal like. Noyr it was the buffalo's turn to make the attack, lor in an instant “it lusltid with great liny at the tiger, and, with a roar oi rage, thrust its horn iulo its striped side. Tnis-”added to the fierceness of the tiger, which returned t« the encounter, inflicting another serious wound on the neck of the buffalo. Again the tiger was thrown off, and the buffalo succeeded in giv ing il another homo thrust. So the; battle went on, neither seeming ’ to get the better of the other, lilt alter a contest of two hour- the buffalo plunged its horns deep into the side of the tiger, repealing the blow once or twice, nnj the contest was ended, the buffalo, as usual, being the victor.
